"I'm in jhb.. Flying apm on fixed wing and multi rotors"
"Hi Guys,
on my 450 after autotune it flies quite well, however it rocks back quite significantly whenever i stop forward flight..
my major problem is that when I yaw (i mentioned this before) even slowly it see saws and moves backwards significantly…"

"I have asked him to do esc recalib"
"I checked motors and props before I flew it.. I was also worried about the circular movement... If u check te logs tho doesn't the vibrations seem too low for all that movement?? (Logs for only the second flight- p at 0.17)
I checked compass and…"

"Mmm friend building a hexa.. On default pids it does the wobble dance.. From the logs I think it maybe the apm is fixed on too softly can you guys perhaps have a look and tell me what u you think?

"hi guys..
so i solved my pulsing and wobbling problem... turns out it was an esc that was going bad.. after replacement all is fine..
i then loaded rc-5 and ran auto tune... everything is actually working great..
loiter, rtl etc..
I have a few…"

"So I thought I had solved my wobble issue by replacing one motor.. I had three successful flights after that. After the third flight (bat wasn't even changed) the wobble suddenly came back.. It's random and sometimes appears in mid flight or at the…"
"So an update on the oscillations i had... perhaps it may help someone else as well..
i tried testing everything... and the oscillations where still there...eventually after testing each motor.. i found one motor that had a slightly different sound…"

"mmm there are a few of us that fly either in alberton or close to midrand... i fly APM, Storm some of the others fly CC3D ...mostly fpv - proximity and long range"
"where do u guys fly in northcliff? At the cricket grounds?"
"Hi Randy, guys...
I am still having my wobble/oscillation problem...
Wonder if someone can help looking over these logs...I am currently on RC-4.. all calibs done etc vibrations are within range - better than when the quad was flying fine. Auto tune…"

"I wonder if someone could shed some light...A few days ago my quad suddenly started oscillating in mid flight.. almost like a P set to high..but it happens intermittently sometimes a smooth flight will suddenly start oscillating... and a few flights…"
"Strangest thing happened on a 1km fpv flight yesterday...running arducopter 3.0.1 external compass..
... Before the flight I tested RTL, GPS etc with props off. All worked fine.
RL is set to return at current alt.
Around a kilometer out my RSSI…"
